Great update, Simon. Thanks. Keep it coming.

Biden and Dems deliver: more jobs, better pay, and lower costs—all while fighting for our freedoms to vote, to love who we love, to be who we are, AND to decide if, how or when we start or grow our families.

The MAGA Repubs wage endless culture wars to distract and divide us so they can ensure a few wealthy, well-connected billionaires & price-gouging, big corporations don’t have to pay the taxes they owe, don’t have to stop blanketing the Earth in heat-trapping pollution, or don’t have to be accountable for a criminally-coordinated attack against our country to sabotage free, fair elections and silence the majority of Americans...

As Simon says—be proud, get loud!

I read it this morning and thought of you. We all need to be telling our friends and family what a great job Biden is doing. Please spread it on social media, too.

All well and good. But....

Money doesn't buy happiness, the sense of security that we yearn for. I strongly recommend that folks listen to or read the transcript to the On Point broadcast of August 1: https://www.wbur.org/onpoint/2023/08/01/why-voters-arent-impressed-by-bidenomics . The participants articulated what I've been trying to understand for the last 6+ years. Democrats must speak forcefully to more than just the economy.

Cancelled sub. to WAPO when President Biden spoke to nation about U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan and WAPO prize-winning writer appeared on MSNBC, and with words, tone and demeanor disrespected our President. This on economy from an editorial board nearly knocked me out the chair. Appreciate you excerpting here Simon.

I want to hear what you all have been doing? Are you a grassroots org staff member? Are you just a regular person who is concerned, like me? Today I have done a voter registration event at a local church with YouCanVote.org in NC. We registered 9 voters today mostly young black and brown. And gave out 125 fridge cards (English/Spanish) with scan codes to verify reg with election dates for local state and national. It was great knowing and chatting with folks and encouraging them their votes matter. I am doing another event this evening, and two next week. Just thinking about how many votes our Dem Senator candidate lost by in 2022, 8000. To know little by little the more that are signed, we can close gaps like that since young black and brown are generally Dem voters. Get busy! I will do a phone shift for Ohio tmrw! Thanks for the motivation Simon to turn Anxiety into Action! Let me here what you all are doing this week Info Warriors! Let’s be Loud together! Hug from NC

Make no mistake, MAGA voters know Joe is kicking A$$. They’re just so hyped up on MAGA roids and crack that they can come to terms with it. Why don’t they want to come to terms with it? Because if it’s not baked and benefiting only whiteness & evangelicals, then it’s bad, even though their bank accounts are ballooning.

Only way to win is to keep pounding the message across all mediums and eventually a small percentage of maga will surrender & come to terms with reality.

I like that Biden is putting his name on the projects funded by the infrastructure bill! https://www.cnn.com/2023/08/04/politics/biden-signs-claim-credit-for-economy/index.html
